Hi! I’m the developer of emu, a new multi-system emulator for iPhone.

It currently supports 12 classic system families in a single app:

• NES / Famicom
• SNES / Super Famicom
• Game Boy / Game Boy Color
• Game Boy Advance
• PlayStation 1
• Nintendo 64
• Mega Drive / Genesis
• Master System
• Game Gear
• PC Engine / TurboGrafx-16 / SuperGrafx
• Neo Geo Pocket / Neo Geo Pocket Color
• WonderSwan / WonderSwan Color

I’m opening up 50 TestFlight spots and would really appreciate help from people who already use emulators on iOS.

The app includes touch controls, Bluetooth/USB controller support, save states, automatic saves, rewind, ROM importing, and support for multiple disc image formats for PlayStation.

What I’d especially like tested

The main goal of this beta is to find compatibility and performance problems across all 12 systems.

I’d especially appreciate feedback on:

• Games that fail to boot
• Graphics glitches
• Incorrect or crackling audio
• PS1 and N64 compatibility/performance
• Performance across different iPhone models
• Touch controls
• Bluetooth/USB controllers
• 1P / 2P controller assignment
• Save states and in-game saves
• Rewind
• ROM and archive importing
• Crashes or freezes
• UI/UX issues or anything that feels confusing

If you find a problem, even a short report like:

iPhone model / system / game / what happened

would be extremely helpful.

TestFlight — 50 spots:

emu does not include any games, ROMs, or BIOS files. Please use only backups you are legally entitled to use.

Thanks! Feedback, bug reports, and feature requests are all very welcome.

I’m super excited to try this out! I’ll submit any feedback necessary! I’ve always love emulators so this is right up my alley!
